Alec Baldwin Endorses Wegmans Plus 5 More Strange Celebrity Advertisements

This new series of commercials for the grocery store chain Wegmans begins like any other low-budget, locally produced ad you might see on daytime television...until Alec Baldwin pops up, hanging out with the employees and singing the praises of the chain's deals with unbridled enthusiasm. And they are brilliant. But Baldwin is not the first celebrity to show up in a baffling advertisement. Today, Movieline takes a look at the Wegmans spots, then fondly remembers five other advertisements where the celebrity appearances make almost zero sense.

Now, let's take a look at other celebrities who show up in advertisements where you'd least expect them.
